Posting While Intoxicated: A DU holiday weekend cautionary picture story
From time to time people will simultaneously imbibe while posting, letting it ALL HANG OUT



For some reason, alcohol and a keyboard can be a sure fire way to ensure one will spill one's innards...just ask F. Scott Fitzgerald...or Will Pitt (it's a joke Will....he knows it's a joke...doesn't he?) :D



But what may, at first, seem a relatively benign commingling of a bottle and an ISP, can result in disaster ...with devastating results



Even *GASP* anguish!



For alcohol can easily alter one's point of reference



Or, to be a bit more candid, turn one into a total shithead



Leaving anger and resentment in their wake


As they crash and burn



Until(yes Dorothy there is a God, or a cosmic muffin, or a higher power) they finally sign off for the night



Or, worse yet, are assisted with the task of signing off



So remember....before you make a fool of yourself



Thereby leading others to pass judgement...perhaps even a bit too harshly



Step away from these


Before you've had too many of these

:beer:

So that we may all have a safe internet experience over the holiday weekend



The End

And if you liked this one, please stay tuned for the sequel....coming soon to a thread near you..."HEY EVERYBODY, I AM SOOOOOOO SORRY I POSTED WHILE INTOXICATED LAST NIGHT!"



OK..this time it's really over

why are you still reading?...I said the frigging' thing was finished!

The young, thin Bob Hope:



or the old, red-rimmed-eyed Bob Hope?:

13. Excellent! Superlative! First-rate!
You captured the entire experience of posting drunk so exqisitely that I was literally transported into the psyche of Will Pitt DU's habitual drunkards and their motivation for posting while under the effluence.

That you are a clean-living, virginal young woman only makes your accomplishment that much greater. Bravo!!

17. It will be your new addiction
BTW....Vidalia onions are in the stores now...buy a couple of those...peel them..hollow out the very top...then crush a garlic clove into the hollow area...drizzle some olive oil..a bit of balsamic..place a small piece of rosemary on top....wrap them in aluminum foil...place them on the grill about 15 minutes prior to placing your steaks on the grill (so that they braise for about 25 or more minutes) Yummy.

Up here in Washington, we also get the much-loved Walla Walla sweet onions, which I honestly can just eat raw (just stay far, far away from me - LOL!) Thanks! :hi:

20. Now why didn't you post this yesterday???
You could've saved me from an entire night of PWI!!! Yes, I am guilty of PWI and now I'm :hangover: and hoping that that my only sin was coming on to a salad tosser... errr, Teddy Salad :D

Oh, and I also submitted my picture to the DU photo gallery while intoxicated. My only hope is that I was too wasted to get Skinner's email addy right. :scared:

22. Oops, sorry
With all the weird stuff going on last night, I missed it. We'll see what happens with the pic, I don't mind having a picture of me in there so much. It's more that it may not be appropriate... we'll let Skinner make that decision, IF he gets the email :D

24. I am eternally grateful I quit drinking a couple of years ago...
but then there's the little matter of the pain pills...

I wonder what happens when one posts under the influence of too much okra?? :shrug:

As always nsma, beautifully done! You have made my day.

36. But Teena given all the "interesting" posts on DU, how could one tell
who's "tippling," "smoking," or whatever? ;-)'s How do we even know YOU weren't having a little "nip" on the side with your post?

37. Too good!
Edited on Sun May-30-04 09:44 PM by SarahBelle
These are great, NSMA! Unfortunately, my issue is posting with PMS rather than alcohol. About once a month, I tend to have this progesterone crash which causes me to spend a couple of days posting every melancholy emotion that lurks unconsciously in my brain. :nopity:

Please, remember as well, don't post with PMS!!!!

43. Perhaps for everyone else
Except for me. I thought it was better (maybe I just had a bad stretch this month), but having even one day a month in tears where I want to just jump off a bridge feels like too much. I hate it. I loath it. I don't eat sugary crap, limit caffeine, exercise, and still....still it sucks. :(

And thanks for the laugh... Now I'm off to see a movie, on my last day off. I really needed this. :bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce:

... if for nothing more than as a warning not to post while inebriated.

Later.
